    Incredible restaurant!! This came recommended from a Boston native and it did not disappoint. There’s a ton of seating and the ambiance is so cool. I ordered the Tortelli Panna e Prosciutto and it was mouthwatering. The truffle oil on it was incredible. I’d highly recommend going here!

    Our bartender was amazing and made great recommendations for drinks and dinner. The dining atmosphere was beautiful, and we had the perfect table right near the open window. The open air dining was a perfect touch on a beautiful evening in the north end, and it was topped off by absolutely amazing Food! Our table service was a little slow, but not terrible. Would highly recommend!
